Patients can self-refer to the musculoskeletal (physio) service via the Your Physio website. The website has a number of useful leaflets and videos about joint and muscular conditions and it guides you through the self-referral process.
The NHS podiatry service in York and Selby locality is provided by the Harrogate and District NHS Foundation Trust via White Cross Court and other local community clinics. Patients can now self refer to use this service where appropriate. For more information on what conditions they can treat and to arrange a referral - visit their website here.
If you have been referred to the Pain Clinic, you may experience a wait of 10-12 months. They have developed a useful resource full of support for patients with chronic pain, including: pacing, guidance on limitations of pain medication for chronic pain, exercises, affect on mood and wellbeing. Visit their website here.
10:45 update: systems back online but remain slow. Staff are working as hard as possible to catch up on clinics and urgent cases. Please bear with us today. It is expected we will need to turn prioryCARE form off again later today. 09:00 update: the system and internet continue to be intermittently down. Some sites are struggling to access our systems. We have turned the prioryCARE form off for now and will update again as soon as we are able. 8:20am update: the system now appears to be working (a little slower than usual). Please bear with our reception and patient central teams as they catch up. We also have some clinical sickness today and this will mean some postponement of appointments. We are unable to access SystmOne this morning - this is our computer system that holds and documents patient records and appointments. We have logged an urgent report with N3i, the IT provider for the local area. They are working on resolving this ASAP. The prioryCARE form will turn back on once we have access to SystmOne. We understand this may be a York-wide issue.
A reminder that our surgeries are closed this afternoon for a York-wide training event. Urgent cover will be provided 12 - 6pm via Nimbuscare (call 01904 943777) We will reopen as normal at 8am Wednesday morning.
